Final Day one to keep a close eye on in the near future

WHEN you watch a lot of racing there aren’t many occasions when the performance of a horse makes you sit up and take particular notice.

Essentially, when attempting to source winners, one tends to view everything as coldly as possible and to ignore hype and a tendency to go with what can often develop into popular opinion.

There are times, however, when you feel that something may well be worth more than a second glance and that’s how this observer felt after Gordon Elliott’s Final Day won at Downpatrick on Tuesday.
